ok now this is driving me mad and i need some help befor i do some thing daft, i am new to forums so i little patience is needed with me. first i had a system which i will decribe in a minuete. (excuse spelling) i have a AMD duron 900mhz 512 sdram samsung cd/dvd rom and the mainboard, is MS830/E cdrw liteon 32 speed now befor this i only had 128 ram and a 8 speed cd writer now i have cable on the motherboard fixed in the first slot and on the cable is my 80 gig hd first then the cd/dvd rom , rom set as slave and the second cable from the second slot stright to the writer and that is set at master. my problem is that if i burn at 4 speed its ok yet if i up the speed to say 8 or above the buffers empty(read and recorder) and then the writer stops (burn proof) it then waits for them to fill up and carrys on writing till it re- emptys and the whole thing starts over again waiting for the buffers to fill up hance it takes alot longer to write at 8 speed or above than 4 speed . any help would be greatly appriciated thanx
